Deep dives into cloud infrastructure, DevOps best practices, product updates, and engineering stories from our team.
A hands-on walkthrough from account creation to a live cloud instance. We cover regions, instance sizing, SSH key setup, firewall rules, and your first deployment — all in under five minutes.
How to harden every instance you deploy — SSH key-only auth, firewall rules, fail2ban, automatic security updates, and audit logging.
From single containers to multi-service stacks — how to deploy, manage, and monitor Docker workloads efficiently on VeloxaHost cloud instances.
A tour of the monitoring dashboard — real-time CPU, memory, and disk metrics, threshold-based alert rules, and multi-channel notifications (email, Slack, Discord).
Connect your GitHub repository to VeloxaHost and have every push automatically tested and deployed using GitHub Actions and our deploy keys feature.
The founding story — a Texas team that got tired of the hyperscaler tax and built the cloud platform developers actually want to use. A message from our team.
The story behind the LXD→Incus community fork, key differences, and a step-by-step migration guide for existing LXD installations.
The architectural difference between system containers (LXC) and application containers (Docker) — with a clear decision framework for when to use each.
An honest, technical comparison of three leading platforms — architecture, use cases, strengths, weaknesses, and a verdict for each scenario.
Step-by-step guide: install fail2ban, configure SSH and Nginx jails, whitelist your IP, enable persistent bans, and verify it's working.
Every security measure to apply before going live: SSH hardening, UFW firewall, fail2ban, auto-updates, audit logging, kernel parameters, and more.
A complete, copy-paste GitHub Actions workflow — SSH deploy keys, Docker Compose pull+up, health checks, and automatic rollback on failure.
Pricing, virtualization tech, networking, and developer experience side by side — with a clear verdict for each use case, including where DO still wins.
Engineering deep-dive: how VeloxaHost uses Incus projects, OVN networking, ZFS storage pools, and cgroups v2 to deliver isolated multi-tenant cloud instances.
